summer: a photo essay...

so it's already almost the end of august. where has the time gone? soon it will be sept and everyone will be going back to college and i will not. this will be the first sept. since i started going to school when i was five, that i will not be going. {exciting/weird}

this summer has been a pretty good one. i worked a lot and was living with stephanie and her girls to try and help out and it was a blast. here's a few photos of some of the stuff i did. {not in order}

{saw my very first moose-in person- at northwest trek}

.

{all of us at northwest trek and erin and daniel came to visit}

.

{feeding the budgees at point defiance zoo}

. {inside a shark's mouth--well a wood version anyways} .

{dragged my mom hiking up on tiger summit--i love you wa}

.

{utah over the 4th for 3 baby blessings--here with anna}

.

{trav came home for his leave for 2 weeks in may-here we are meeting him at the airport}

.

{demonstrating his strength at the science center in seattle}
